Long Island thrashy metal band goes to God City, makes stunning record, destroys all in its path. That’s the overview of Divider, the quintet who, alongside guru of heavy Kurt Ballou, have concocted this six-song sojourn whose off-kilter abrasiveness and unadulterated metallic hardcore stance is an angst-ridden tour-de-force brimming with dissonant guitar chugging, pummeling rhythms, and the kind of pulverizing arrangements like “Doomsday” and “Question Everything” that are deliciously disjointed enough to spread like wildfire. If you like your hardcore gritty a la Modern Life is War and Bleeding Kansas, AT TWILIGHT is a guaranteed winner. www.dividerandconquer.com
